HOT OFF THE PRESS!!!!!!!!!

My dear Margo...I am so glad that you saw this post and replied.  You are so right...the "shy and private" girl stood there buck naked with strangers in the room, while they were touching and pulling and .......!  But I knew that it would all be worth it. 

My intention if I was selected for the show was to make it a "coming out" party!  Yeppers, I was going to let everyone know everything....but since the show isn't going to happen for me....I am back in my "closet."

But don't forget...I AM in the photo from the Pgh. Palooza...alright, so there is a smiley face in place of mine.

Thank you for your sweet words and for being tickled for me!  You are so Margo!! 

Hugs, Lora

PS--How are Michael and the birds???

Lora, what an amazing whirlwind experience you have had. I am keeping you in prayers for a safe surgery and a rapid recovery. I am keeping the medical staff in prayers too. You are in for some transformation and that is an understatement. Please keep us informed on what is going on. To say the least most of us are waiting with bated breath for what is going to be happening.

Howdy Brenda,
You are such a dear!!  Thank you for your good wishes and prayers to me and for my surgical team...they will surely need them...9 hours...YIKES!! 

I will try to post more and keep you up to date and informed, but if I can't, I will have Mary (Baseball-Mom) keep you posted.  I am anxious to see my transformation, too!!

Hugs, Lora

I give you a lot of credit for going "all the way"!  I can't even imagine having one small area nipped and tucked, and here you are, going for the gold!  I admire your boldness.  I myself am a wimp when it comes to the whole idea.  I'm so sorry the TV thing fell through.  Would have been nice to get it done for free.  But if you can afford it, go for it.  You deserve to feel good about what you've done for yourself. 

You're gonna look really hot, lady!

Lora:

It sounds like your husband is very supportive and so I hope that all things go well for you and you get this wonderful opportunity to "turn back the clock".

Blessings,

Jeane

Hi Jeane...
First of all, nice to "meet" you! 

Thank you for your kind words and good wishes.  Yes..I am excited to "turn back the clock" because I would love to be  college-age again!!  Well...maybe not!


Have a great day, and blessings to you,too!
Hugs, Lora 

Hi Lora,

Yes I know what you mean.  My life before 47 was not exactly a wonderful life.  But I must say that I am probably the happiest I Have ever been at 55.  And when I get to goal it will be even better.

Be healthy!

Jeane

My dear Candy....
You are the dearest and "sweetest" lady!!   Yep...I am being bold...wahoo!  But let's not forget the stuff you did...that was brave and bold... and to share your befores and afters...very brave and bold, missy!!  You are NOT a wimp!!!

The TV show would not warrant the procedures to be free..for legalities they say reduced.  I think it would have been about 1/2 off (a nice brand new car!!).  Oh well...Can't really afford this procedure, but DH says I need it, too!  So either a mortgage loan, home equity, credit card, combo, beg, borrow, steal...who knows...where there is a will there is a way....

Thank you for reminding me that I am worth it, and as for looking hot after it is done...I would settle for luke warm!!

Have a great day!
Hugs, Lora
